Quick Transmigration: My First Female Skill Takes Effect
Chapter 158 Imperial Examination Essay, First Female Candidate
Before Gu Dajiang could even slap him, his wrist was firmly gripped by Gu Ershui, rendering him unable to move.
He roared angrily, "Second brother, how dare you lay a hand on me?"
He thought he was the future head of the Gu family, but he never expected that the second son would dare to stop him.
Gu Ershui was also angry, but he suppressed his anger in his eyes: "Big brother, Aqi is just a four-year-old child."
He has always looked down on people who hit children, thinking they are cowards.
"Child..." Gu Dajiang sneered, then his pupils dilated and he let out a scream: "Ahhh!"
Several birds in the nearby trees heard this and were so frightened that they hurriedly flew away.
Gu Qi stepped on Gu Dajiang's foot, and only she knew how much force she used.
"I'm going to tell my mother, and I'm going to tell my father."
Her head was tilted back, and the sunlight shone directly on her face. The gentle light was interpreted by Gu Ershui as having a hint of menace.
Gu Lan ran in at this moment, still holding her grandmother's wood-chopping knife in her hand. When she saw that Gu Dajiang had been stopped, she first breathed a sigh of relief, but then anger welled up inside her.
She hadn't uttered a single harsh word to Gu Qi, yet the child she had watched grow up was almost beaten up.
Her expression was stern. She first squatted down and carefully examined Gu Qi's body to make sure there were no wounds.
Gu Qi: "I'm fine."
Gu Mai also came over and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that her granddaughter was not hurt.
"Aqi, go with your sister Lan to her house for a while."
"Grandma will have your dad pick you up later."
Gu Qi nodded.
Gu Lan also took her hand and walked outside. Gu Mai started to shoo people away, saying, "Everyone, disperse." When most of the crowd had left, Gu Sanhe and Li Ling ran to their front door.
The first thing the two did was to find their child.
Gu Mai first told them that the child was fine, and then said that the child lived across the street.
Upon hearing this, Li Linggang immediately ran out, followed closely by Gu Sanhe. Gu Qi was sitting in the room with Gu Lan and her sisters.
Holding pastries in her hand.
There was also warm water on the table.
"Mother." Gu Qi had just called out when she was hugged tightly. Li Ling's eyes were filled with tears as she looked her daughter up and down to see if she had any injuries.
"It's okay, I'm fine."
Gu Qi was turned over so that Li Ling would have to see it again herself.
As they watched, they even started to take off their clothes. Gu Qi objected, but her objections were ineffective.
Li Ling was genuinely worried that her daughter might have some hidden injuries, but all she saw was a slight red mark on her arm where she had been hit.
It was when Gu Qi hit Gu Qing that Gu Qing slapped him.
"I should have stayed," Li Ling lamented, regretting leaving her daughter alone at home.
Gu Qi wiped away her tears: "I'm fine, Mom, I'm alright." She even jumped up and down to show her mother and father.
Li Ling hummed in agreement, wiping her eyes dry. Her red-rimmed eyes met Gu Sanhe's gaze.
The two thanked Gu Lan again and asked Gu Qi to wait a while until they finished dealing with their family matters before coming to pick her up.
"Okay." Gu Lan agreed without hesitation.
Without saying a word, Gu Mai slapped Gu Dajiang on the head: "You don't listen to me anymore, you've really grown wings."
She was so angry that she slapped him again.
Shen Yun stopped her, saying, "Mother, Dajiang's foot is already hurting enough."
She saw it; the toe that had been stepped on was swollen, and Gu Dajiang was still groaning and complaining of the pain.
Gu Mai withdrew her hand and said seriously, "Since you won't listen to me, then I won't interfere in your affairs anymore."
"The third brother is back."
After saying that, she walked straight out the door and came face to face with Gu Sanhe and Li Ling, who had just returned. Both of them had black faces, like dark clouds.
Instead of going back into their house, and with Aqi nowhere to be seen, he walked directly towards the house of Gu Dajiang and his wife.
As soon as he entered the house, Old Man Gu coughed and winked at Gu Sihai, signaling him to stop them.
He then closed the gate, blocking the scattered onlookers outside.
Li Ling and Gu Sanhe, Gu Mai and Old Man Gu, Zhou Xing and Gu Sihai, Wang Erhua and Zhou Ershui all came to Gu Dajiang's house.
Shen Yun sat on the edge of the bed, wiping away tears with her head down. Her eldest son had been beaten, her husband had been beaten, and she also had to endure strange looks from others.
She felt wronged.
Li Ling sneered, "Sister-in-law, is brother leaving? He's crying so sadly."
She completely ignored the expressions on Gu Mai's face, Old Man Gu's face, and even Gu Dajiang's face.
She just wanted to avenge her friend Aqi.
The atmosphere froze. Gu Dajiang's feet were really hurting, and he'd been cursed to die. He forced himself to get up and cursed, "No wonder Gu Qi is so ill-mannered, it turns out it's because of you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Gu Sanhe picked up a stool next to him and threw it at him.
It hit him in the face.
"Father, Mother, look at my third brother and his wife." Shen Yun moved the stool away, her face grim. She felt that they were all going too far.
Old Gu stopped him, saying, "Third brother."
He then looked at Gu Dajiang and scolded him, "If you can't speak properly, then speak less."
Then she turned to Li Ling and said, "Dajiang is your brother, there are some things you can't say to him." Then she added, "I know Aqi has been wronged."
"Let it go this time, but arguing and fighting at home will only make us a laughing stock."
Gu Sanhe stepped forward, refusing to back down: "Father, how should we handle this? My daughter can't be frightened for nothing."
"Otherwise, I'll find some time to go and talk to Dalang."
Shen Yun: "It was Aqi who hit Dalang first, Third Brother, can't you be reasonable?"
"Hehe, what did Dalang say that made Aqi do it?" Li Ling asked back, knowing that Aqi was a good child.
They rarely resort to violence.
Old Man Gu called Dalang in. Under Old Man Gu's gaze, Gu Qing dared not lie and told him everything.
He didn't think he had done anything wrong.
Instead, she cried to Grandpa Gu, "Grandpa, my stomach still hurts. Please punish Gu Qi and don't let her go to school."
No sooner had she finished speaking than, with a bang, Li Ling grabbed Shen Yun's favorite cup and smashed it in front of Gu Qing.
He was so frightened that he cried and backed away, but Old Man Gu stepped in front of him in time and was not hit by the shards. He was just so frightened that he cried loudly.
"Third son's wife." Old Gu could not tolerate Li Ling harming the Gu family's children.
Shen Yun and Gu Dajiang both glared angrily at Li Ling.
Li Ling sneered, "Father, when my brother beat me, Aqi, why didn't you reprimand him?"
"Gu Sanhe, look at this! You worked your ass off to earn this money, and you're spending it on your daughter, and yet people still resent you?"
Ultimately, it all boils down to a struggle for interests.
Old Man Gu couldn't bring himself to say the words of reprimand. Gu Dajiang's actions were disgraceful, and even Dalang had been corrupted.
Gu Sanhe stepped forward and patted Li Ling on the back. He remained silent for a moment.
He looked at Old Man Gu and said, "Father, let's divide the family property."
The two families could no longer coexist peacefully, and he was also reluctant to let his daughter appear before his eldest son.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Old Gu's eyes widened, clearly disapproving.
It is important to know that taxes, including corvée labor, are levied on a household basis.
One person per household per year.
If they were family-oriented, they would only have their turn to separate every four or five years, while if they separated, it would only happen once a year.
Dividing the family property was not in everyone's interest. Not to mention Old Man Gu, Gu Ershui and Gu Sihai all disagreed with dividing the family property.
